Patient Size Selection

The CS 8200 3D Family provides the following design features and instructions that enable safer use of our device with pediatric patients.

Patient Size Selection

The two smallest patient size icons represent the exposure values for children and adolescent patients.

Both patient sizes are associated to reduced kV/mA values which may reduce the dose related to these exposure parameters.

 

Child patient size

Recommended for the child population of between 5 to 12 year old [~ 21 kg (46 lb); 113 cm (44.5 in) to ~ 52 kg (115 lb); 156 cm (61.5 in)].

Adult small patient size  

Recommended for the adolescent population of approximately ~ 52 kg (115 lb); 156 cm (61.5 in).
